Special projects for publishers and institutions. Immersive journalism, interactive documentaries, live experiences, physical exhibitions. Built from brief to launch.
Build a journalism project about civilian life in Kramatorsk as the frontline approaches — one that audiences will feel, not just read.
An interactive documentary that turned the city into narrative architecture. Audiences moved through Kramatorsk by choosing residents — a taxi driver, a postal worker, a firefighter, a dentist, a teacher — rather than following a linear story. Interactive maps became editorial devices. 360 video gave mobile users the ability to rotate and explore real environments.
At time of reporting, the frontline was roughly 30 kilometres away. About one third of the city's residents remained. The project won 3rd place at the INMA Global Media Awards.
"A blueprint for a participatory, immersive, and emotionally intelligent next era of media."

Cover US–Mexico border migration in formats that match the scale and complexity of the story — not just text and photographs.
An eight-month project across four US states with over 25 journalists, photographers, designers, reporters, editors, translators, and developers from six countries. The team used cameras, drones, VR, 360° cameras, illustrations, and messenger tools to produce stories in formats rarely seen in migration coverage.
The project combined the reach and credibility of the Dallas Morning News, the photographic authority of VII Foundation and Ron Haviv, and Outriders' expertise in immersive digital formats and cross-border reporting coordination. Recognized at the INMA Global Media Awards.
"One image can influence the course of history. We remain committed to traditional photographic narratives, yet are equally driven to innovate, seeking new approaches and formats that could amplify impact and invite deeper audience engagement."
— RON HAVIV, VII FOUNDATION

Cover the Belarus migration crisis not from the border — but from where people come from. Counter-programming to state propaganda and restricted access.
A live five-day international reporting project with fifteen reporters across seven countries simultaneously — Lebanon, Iraq, Turkey, Jordan, Lithuania, Germany, and Poland. Published on Gazeta.pl, then released as a documentary film in four languages, then archived as a final interactive version.
While the Polish government restricted media access to the border zone, Outriders went upstream — to the travel agencies selling fake Belarus tours for $6,000–$10,000 per person, and to the families who bought the ticket. The project won the Polish-German Journalism Award for Multimedia.
"The most forensic account published of how Lukashenko's migration weapon actually worked in practice."
A physical exhibition and theatre performance — Outriders' years of border reportage turned into spatial experience and stage. Warsaw and Szczecin, 2024.
→ MOREThree months of bilingual podcasts and videocasts from Rojava with Syrian journalist Massoud Hamid — a sustained interactive diary that held attention over months, not clicks.
VIEW PROJECT →Every project on this page began with a brief and a belief that the story deserved more than a standard format. If you have that brief — or just the beginning of one — I'd like to hear it.
